Source of the stuttering playback in CC 2014

I'm trying to playback a series of 4K tiff images and it's probably only playing about 1/4 of the frames, if that. I know that's a tough ask of any computer, but when I saw how the hardware was working I thought I'd check I haven't done anything wrong. Because I'm not sure where the bottleneck is.
CPU (i7 4770k) is around 16%
SSD (Samsung 840 Pro) is around 40%
RAM (32gb DDR3 1600 mhz) shoots up to about 70% of the 32GB but I've got it set so it can go even higher
GPU (GTX 770) is barely working at all, maybe 4% or so and the Mercury GPU playback is enabled
I've also got a separate SSD scratch disc to the SSD the source files are on, and both of those are separate from the OS's SSD.
I wonder if anyone has any ideas where things might be getting stuck?
The first second or so will play fine, then it slows down. I wouldn't have thought 600mb/s would be too fast for the RAM to keep up. I've tried playback resolutions of full to 1/2 to 1/8 and they all go the same way.
Thanks very much for your thoughts!

Ah they're not, they're just on a regular SSD (6g). This is basically my setup for storage:
Samsung 840 Pro SSD - OS (Win 8.1 64bit)
Samsung 840 Pro SSD - Source Files
Samsung 840 Evo SSD - Cache
Hopefully that helps Thanks!

Stuttering playback with all footage. New CC 2014.1 install

I just installed CC 2014 on a mac. Still have CS6 too. I'm getting a very strange stuttering playback issue. Looks like 10 frames per second. then crashes. Cleared preffs and rebooted but didnt fix it. I have tried several types of footage and all plays back the same. Main footage is 24p C300.

Hello Erik,
Sorry you're having trouble.
Can you give us the specs of your Mac? Include info on RAM, CPU, drives, OS X version, GPU type and driver number.
Is this a new project or one you updated from an earlier version of Premiere Pro?
Here are some other things I'm recommending for Mac users for this version:
Sign out from Creative Cloud, restart Premiere Pro, then sign in
Update any GPU drivers
Trash preferencesI read you already tried this.
Ensure Adobe preference files are set to read/write
Delete media cache
Remove plug-ins
If you have AMD GPUs, make sure CUDA is not installed
Repair permissions
In Sequence Settings > Video Previews, change the codec to one that matches your footage
Disconnect any third party hardware
Reboot
Some users are reporting anomalies with certain footage. To fix it, they rename the folder the media files are in, then relink in Premiere Pro. You may want to try a test with a few clips rather than the whole project first.
Report back if anything here worked for you.
Thanks,
Kevin

Has Premiere Elements 12 fixed the jittery playback issues from CS4?

I use Premiere Pro CS4 to edit my videos. I shoot with a Canon DSLR the 60D and import the video files straight into Premiere Pro without the extra transcoding step. (too much trouble to transcode the raw video with every clip). I get jittery and jerky motion in the left hand Source Monitor, when I make my in and out point edits. It plays fine once I have made my edits and render them in the right hand Program Monitor. I have heard that this has been fixed in version CS5 and higher. I can't afford to buy the CS program again, but could purchase Premiere Elements 12 the latest version. Would the jittery playback still be there in the left Source Monitor window of Elements 12, or has it been fixed in all forward versions newer than CS4?
Also if there is a way to make the imported video play smooth in the Source Monitor directly from CS4, without the transcoding process, I would like to hear about that for sure. Thanks for your help guys. Ken in Toronto.

Ken
I am surprised that the Premiere Pro group did not answer your Premiere Pro question before transferring your thread to the Premiere Elements Forum. The Premiere Pro question seems to be the immediate one. Your question seems to have been ignored by the Premiere Pro people
Also if there is a way to make the imported video play smooth in the Source Monitor directly from CS4, without the transcoding process, I would like to hear about that for sure.
An answer to that might avoid you having to get involved with a new program, Premiere Elements 12.
Nonetheless, I cannot offer you any guarantee about editing 60D footage in Premiere Elements 12. I would need lots of details of your specific video properties and computer environment to approach an answer. Your best and quickest answer will come from downloading and installing Premiere Elements 12 and determining its compatibility in your computer environment and if it meets your video editing needs.

Stuttering playback on editing monitor

Playback of movie being edited on the editing monitor is erratic and stuttery. I went to iMovie HD Preferences and selected both "Standard" and "Highest" playback modes to no avail. The stuttery playback continues.
However, when I click on "full screen playback", the stuttering ceases and playback smooths out.
I also encounter annoying delays in response to start and stop play commands in the editing process.
The movie, currently 46 minutes long, contains 100-110 stills but no slow motion scenes. Other than a half-dozen scrolling titles, all the rest is video.
Any ideas as to what's causing the stuttering and delay problems and their solutions will be much appreciated.

If your project contains audio clips as well as video clips, you might be seeing the slowdown that occurs when the project contains many audio clips.
More about the problem here, with workarounds:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2597033#2597033
The precise number of audio clips that causes this problem seems to vary from Mac to Mac. As few as 30 audio clips has been reported.
The project I just tested plays poorly except in Full Screen mode. That wasn't true in the others I tested, but apparently Full Screen does work for some projects. So what I see here is consistent with your experience.

Stuttering Playback on iMac

I am experiencing stuttering playback and a strange noise on playback especially when unrendered h.264 is involved. When it works, it works fine but occasionally this will happen:
www.givethatmanajob.com/Public/issues/StutterPlayback_a.mov
I am suspecting my GFX card may be having trouble. All software is current. Any throughts?

Sometimes I do transcode, sometimes not. The problem happens intermittantly regaurdless and I started to suspect that it was h.264 that was given issues most of the time so I shot some test video on an iPhone. In the original post the video I linked to shows footage that was *not* transcoded.
Coming from an iPhone means nothing, especially as the iPhone, whatever iPhone this is, shoots non-standard video formats.
An iPhone 4s shooting h.264 1080p .mov
In the world of tapeless media, this is pretty standard.
I understand that H.264 is a long GOP format, and not optimized for editing hence the desirability to transcode to an intraframe codec such as ProRes. However, one of the features of FCPX is that it is designed to handle h.264 footage because a lot of video is shot that way these days.
Coming from an iPhone does not mean nothing. It means the company that designed the software capable of editing h.264 also designed the software and hardware that shot the footage in h.264 format. It means we can expect that at least some thought was put into them playing well together. It means that if I shoot some test video on an iPhone, put in on an iMac running FCPX without filters I should be able to expect smooth playback all else being equal.

IPod nano: Stuttering playback

I've been having intermittent problems with my ipod nano (~6 months old) that manifest as stuttering playback. This happens seemingly at random, affecting all sorts of tracks, which then play fine at other times. The stuttering can be slight or so bad that the whole playback comes to a halt. Turning the iPod on and off doesn't neccessarily solve it, thought it can, and it can also go away of its own accord!
Has anyone else experienced this? I've tried the reset and updated my iPod - neither helped.
Next step, return to Apple and get ripped off for p&P and handling? Not impressed with this company or their 'customer service'
Any advice would be appreciated!
Cheers

Hi,
Casper G - I've not restored it yet. I'll give it a go tonight.
Deluded, I've never tried with a podcast. All my issues are with music (either converted from mp3 ripped from a CD, or downloaded direct from iTunes) and audiobooks.
Apple's response to your issue is pretty pathetic.
ibkidd37 - no I don't rate songs. This isn't an issue with accidental fast forwarding. The playback stutters (not skips) and slows and then either corrects itself or grinds to a halt.
Is there any other way of getting technical support other than asking the forums and hoping some other paying cutomer has had the same issue and solved it?
Cheers

Stuttering playback issues

Is anyone have a solution for smooth playback all files are pro res 422 the sequence is about 30 min. and is outputting to a monitor through a Kona 3g card we are getting stuttering playback and cant seem to fix it any suggestions?
Jesse

What are the sequence settings? I got pretty bad playback until I created a ProRes template.

Is the DVD playback of poor quality?

I'm still miffed by the quality of the dvd playback. We have dvd players both in a pc, xbox, ps2 and stand along units. Yet somehow the one on my imac looks really rough. Is this more down to the really new hardware? I still have have the same full screen dvd playback glitch on my replaced intel imac so dont know where to turn to.
Sarfraz

I don't think the problem is the dvd player, but the resolution of the monitor. When you stream hi def trailers, it looks awsome. The resolution of the mac monitor is higher than a hi def television. You are not seeing a limitation of the hardware, but the limitation of the source dvd itself. My cable company has some analog channels mixed in with the digital ones and a hi def tv will make a bad picture look worse. The highest settings on hi def tv's is 1080. If you look at the display settings on the mac, you are at 1440. That's a significant difference.

ITunes stuttering playback

After the big OS X Leopard update, iTunes started skipping or stuttering on playback. It does it often enough that the program is basically unusable. The skipping is NOT related to internet access by my mail program (Mailsmith) or web browsers. It is NOT an mp3 file corruption problem, since the stuttering occurs in different places with each replay of the same song. The songs are those loaded from my own CD's and played flawlessly before the software update. The usual rigamarole of trashing preferences and resetting PRAM has not changed anything.
I have noticed other people with the same problem posting on different boards. I assumed that the 7.6.1 update to iTunes would address this issue. No such luck.
I am at a loss. I have an almost new MacBook which worked flawlessly until the update. I am very disappointed with Apple that 1) this issue is not addressed, and 2) that it is impossible to contact anyone knowledgeable about how to attempt to fix this. As a legacy Mac user (first 128K Mac bought on 2/24/1984 and many, many Macs since, this is a new type of helpless feeling.
Help!

This is a widespread issue, search the boards for "stutter" .... there must several hundred people posting on these forums with the same issue.
I have my 300GB + iTunes library on an external WD My Book Pro (a 2TB version set up as a 1TB RAID mirror) connected via FW800. I solved my stuttering playback problem by transferring my library to another external FW800 drive with two Seagate 200GB drives configured as a RAID stripe.
Thats all I've found so far.....

After the latest update to Photoshop 2014, something went wrong and started spray-like black oil on canvas. I have deadline with cover. Can you help me please?

How do I undo whatever went wrong after installing the latest update to Photoshop 2014 and suddenly when I tried to paint or touch up my illustration (book cover I'd drawn and painted, then scanned in and continued painting, changing. It's mostly done but I needed to send it like yesterday!!) OR touch up a photograph, black-like oily smudge-like substance sprayed around the point of the brush. I tried to fix by resetting but really didn't know what to do and probably made it worse. However, the problem happened after I updated the Photoshop Creative Cloud 2014 on my desktop 8.1 Windows and after a Tech helped update the regular CC Photoshop on my laptop 2007, 64 bit Windows to 2014. He promised to call back after giving it time to install but didn't for whatever reason on Friday. That happened to go up to the same update I did on my Windows 8.1 Windows. I have this deadline and really stressed. COULD IT BE THE UPDATE OR BOTH. REGARDLESS, CAN SOME EXPERT HELP ME UNDO WHATEVER THE UPDATE AND/OR I DID? I'm a God-gifted artist but only started using Photoshop CC, then updated to 2014--which, again, I like even better--when I began my monthly membership January or February 2014, although I had paid version 2002 and updated to paid version 2004 (ownership, not paid subscription like now). I've learned so much, including transforming, moving, stretching, with layers--all in the painting area with my illustrations--a little touch ups with photography. MY EMAIL IS: [email protected] I really appreciate any help. This needs to be resolved today, the latest tomorrow--I could call tomorrow, however. I was chatting with a Tech support but lost him about an hour or less back. I have the case number and name and gave him my contact number, but they won't be in until tomorrow. He's supposed to give info and escalate the case. I really need an answer--if possible, today. It may require going back to before installing the latest update. THANK YOU KINDLY. Glena Jessee-King

if someone could help about what to do, i would be grateful..

when defining a data source through the admin web page, don't add '!' in front of the password.
! is needed only when configuring a data source in the mapViewerConfig.xml file.

Why does text on certain portions of websites, usually when adjacent text contains special characters, become jumbled into seemingly random sets of characters that are not in any way jumbled when viewing the source of the webpage? How can I fix this?

When viewing most text on most websites, it displays properly. However, there are two instances where text will either tend to, or consistently, become jumbled into a mess of seemingly random characters. Oddly enough, these seemingly random characters are not, in fact, random. The same weird character will be used to replace the same regular English text character consistently across the entire area that has been jumbled.
The two instances where this tends to occur most often, or consistently in some cases, are, first, when a paragraph or particular section of formatted text contains special characters, such as Chinese or Japanese characters, or accented letters. When this happens, usually the paragraph that contains the special characters is completely jumbled, while the rest of the text on the page will have intermittent jumbling on a word or two. Most often, the word "the" is jumbled in this case.
The second instance where this happens is when a website uses specially formatted text in some form or another. I, not being an expert at web development, am not sure what kind of formatting causes it, but I can provide consistent examples in lieu of my experience:
- Example 1:
[http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/9564/firefoxcharencodingissu.jpg]
Example 1 shows a portion of a screen-shot of the website "Joystiq.com". Every single article title on the front page of this blog is consistently jumbled, while the text of the article itself remains untouched. Please note that when this jumbled text is highlighted, it is visible un-jumbled in the right-click menu as well as in the source code of the page. Other consistent instances can be found within many search fields on various websites. For instance, the search bar located at the top right of "Kotaku.com" consistently displays jumbled characters both on its default text of "Search" and on any text that is typed into the search box itself.
- Example 2:
[http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/9564/firefoxcharencodingissu.jpg]
Example 2 shows both the jumbling of the paragraph containing the character "☆" as well as the subsequent peppering of the rest of the article's text with small jumbled words. Below this is the DOM Source of the selected text which shows how the text itself is being rendered properly within the site's source. Additionally, for convenience, I have edited on to the bottom of the image a small snippet of what the search bar on the same page looks like. Notice how the grayed-out text that normally would read "Search" is instead jumbled.
This issue has been plaguing my browser for the past year or so, and I had hoped that it would go away with subsequent Firefox updates. It has not gone away.
Thank you for reading! Please help!

This issue can be caused by an old bitmap version of the Helvetica or Geneva font or (bitmap) fonts that Firefox can't display in that size.
Firefox can't display some old bitmap fonts in a larger size and displays gibberish instead.
You can test that by zooming out (View > Zoom > Zoom Out, Ctrl -) to make the text smaller.
Uninstall (remove) all variants of that not working font to make Firefox use another font or see if you can find a True type version that doesn't show the problem.
There have also been fonts with a Chinese name reported that identify themselves as Helvetica, so check that as well.
Use this test to see if the Helvetica font is causing it (Copy & Paste the code in the location bar and press Enter):
<pre><nowiki>data:text/html,
Helvetica abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ 
Helvetica Neue abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
</nowiki></pre>
You should reset the network.http prefs that show user set on the about:config page. 
Not all websites support http pipelining and if they do not then you can have issues with images or other problems.

How can I get a file to copy all of the files in a directory except itself and the source of the copy function will be the directory the final program is in?

How can I get a file to copy all of the files in a directory except itself and the source of the copy function will be the directory the final program is in? This application must be in Lab View 8.

you mean something like this (see below)?
Now you may have to implement code to check if the destination folder exists and to create it, etc. But if you use the Front Panel Control to select the destination folder, it should be okay.
Not the best implementation, mind you but you'll get the idea..
